Out of Range Message Won't go away

All of a sudden the out of range message appeared on my GE 5.8 cordless phone's base. The two other units now say the same thing. I've unplugged them and plugged them into a new jack, same message. I bought new phones (same ones), same message HELP!
Thanks.

If you are not too far away-not "out of range" then try rehoming/pairing the handset with the base unit. You probably need the phones together to do this. Your manual will explain how-it will have been done in the original setup.

On the handset, look for the "PROGRAM" button and choose "HANDSET SETUP". Scroll through the menu to find "REGISTRATION" and select it. The handset display should then prompt you to press and hold the "PAGE" button on the base unit for 5 seconds and then press the "PROGRAM" button on the handset.

Perhaps you've already tried this process, as you indicated your attempts "to set it up". This is what worked for my GE DECT phones when one of the handsets displayed "Out of Range" after an electrical storm. Best of luck to you!

Please check that you have correctly registered the second handset to the base. It may be necessary to de-register the second handset and then re-register it. "Out of range" just means the second handset is not within range of the base phone it was registered to.

Possible other frequencies in a similar range as the 2.4GHz phones are interfering such as interference from other electrical appliances or Uverse TV. Move the handset and the base unit away from any other electrical appliances and try again. Make sure the base antennas are fully extended.
